Yesterday we went on our class trip to New Lanark.<\/p>\n

We had to get a bus and the drive felt so long! – Luke<\/p>\n

We split up into two groups to do different activites. – Manno<\/p>\n

We went to a workshop and were given a detective hat to investigate things from the past.\u00a0 – Eve & Alistair<\/p>\n

We went to a house from 200 years ago. – Arjun<\/p>\n

We learnt that they often only had one room and that lots of people from the same family would live there.\u00a0 – Saransh<\/p>\n

We got to dress up one person from our little group as a Mill Worker. We had to select the correct clothes that we thought they would wear. -Peggy<\/p>\n

We looked at items and had to pick out the ones\u00a0that we thought wouldn’t belong in the past. As they\u00a0didn’t have electricty they would use a gas lamp for lights.- Harry M<\/p>\n

We learnt that poeple would go to the toilet in\u00a0a ‘chanty’ and they would then throw it out of the window. We all thought that sounded disgusting. -Hamish<\/p>\n

We went on a ride called the ‘Annie McLeod’ experience where we learnt lots of interesting facts about the past. – Ryley<\/p>\n

We got to see what the inside of a real life Cotton Mill would look like. – Emily<\/p>\n

We enjoyed going down the slide and playing hopscotch. – Ami<\/p>\n

There was also a lovely park that we were allowed to play in. There was a big climbing frame, a throne for a King or Queen, and a little house.\u00a0 It was very fun.\u00a0 – Harry C, Maya, Blain, Ryley, Afie<\/p>\n

Lastly we went into a threate to watch a short movie. It was about a time traveller who discussed life in the futrure and in the past. – Elise, Grace<\/p>\n

I really enjoyed our trip and I loved all the fun things we got to do. – Isla<\/p>\n

Thank you so much to our wonderful parent helpers for coming with us! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
